Yair Netanyahu Evacuated from US Over Significant Security Threat
Israel's Shin Bet security agency confirmed that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's son, Yair Netanyahu, was urgently evacuated from Florida to Israel due to a "significant" threat. Reports from US outlet Newsmax indicated an alleged Iranian assassination plot in December 2025, with Israeli intelligence alerting US authorities. Shin Bet did not explicitly attribute the threat to Iran. The evacuation involved Shin Bet agents relocating from New York to Miami, coinciding with Israeli President Isaac Herzog's US visit. Benjamin Netanyahu recently stated Iran had targeted one of his sons.
